But since no benchmark can be absolute, judgement is a proliferation of comparisons. Through a series of case studies in everyday and academic comparison (literature, history, politics, philosophy), Haun Saussy calls out the typical vices of comparison and proposes ways to unseat them. For however much it is abused, distorted, and manipulated, comparison retains an essential link to the idea of justice. 606 $aComparison (Philosophy) 606 $aIntercultural communication 615 0$aComparison (Philosophy) 615 0$aIntercultural communication. 676 $a121 700 $aSaussy$b Haun$f1960-$0694849 712 02$aFörderung Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) (SFB 1288)$4fnd$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fnd 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910346051903321 996 $aAre We Comparing Yet$92181267 997 $aUNINA
